Apparently Ferrari neglected to put self-adjusting tensioners on those belts which of course makes the cars vulnerable to that type of failure.Hunter Wrote:I think I know whats wrong with that picture... the shoulder harnesses are conected to the cage with eyebolts instead of wrapping around the bar.

Well, there's an enormous hole exposing the engine to the cockpit and there doesn't seem to be a belt on the engine either.
I wanna say those belts drive the power steering pump and water pump but I forget exactly what the techs were saying.
Hunter I actually didn't catch the eyebolts thing but you're right, they shouldn't be mounted like that :?
